Summary

Douglas Romer's career as a vicar comes crashing down as he fails to come to terms with his young wife's sudden and violent death. He takes a temporary leave of absence from his Sheffield parish and heads to the coastal town of Dingle in his wife's homeland of Ireland. Here, he meets various people whose lives become intricately tied to his. Among these new friends is Dorchadas, a man who claims to be a retired angel. He also meets several people whom he never imagined meeting, not least because they come from a time long before his.

Excellent - Let there be light...

Loved everything about this book. The story was rich and moving. The performance was just amazing. I truly hope that you have the same reader for the other 2 books in the trilogy and I hope they are available soon.

Wonderful!

Felt like the writer really nailed it. Faith is so much more than religion. Very well narrated. Humorous as well as deeply thought provoking.
